Discussions of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) in education that do not show an impact regularly focus on the intervention and how it failed to impact on expected measures, with typologies identifying persistent critical points of failure. This paper uses one such RCT--the Integrating English programme--to exemplify the application of a new…

Background: Special attention is required when considering any educational intervention aimed at its promotion and development. Our objective is to conduct an umbrella review of systematic reviews that gather evidence from relationships and sex education programmes tailored for individuals with intellectual disabilities. Methods: The protocol was…

Beliefs and assumptions appear in many guises in applied linguistic designs. They illustrate the connections among technical life and the certitudinal sphere. On the norm side, these certitudinal anticipations appeal to designs that are trustworthy. Technical subjects are inspired by steadfastness and commitment to designing credible language…

This study examined the role of the school counselor in the implementation of suicide postvention protocol. Specifically, after a student suicide has a occurred. The researcher collected data via a Qualtrics survey where qualified school counselors answered closed and open-ended questions. School counselors were then given the option to…

Designs have a technical range, specified by the conditions that guide their development. Such analogical spatial moments in the technical give rise to the elementary applied linguistic concept of technical extension or continuity on both the norm side and factual side. Examples are the dimensionality and internal coherence of a designed…

This meta-analytical review aims to investigate the overall effect of comprehensive interventions on teacher well-being and the factors that moderate the effect by synthesizing empirical evidence. A total number of 176 effect sizes from 44 studies were included in this study. The results reported the mean effect size of intervention on teacher…

The sharp increase in dementia and age-related memory impairments worldwide has made reminiscence-based interventions attractive. Past research is mixed with little focus on self-functioning. The aims of this study were (i) to develop and assess the implementation of a reminiscence-based intervention, Digital Life Story Books, grounded in…

The search was carried out in the Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, Eric, and PsycINFO databases. Active breaks are effective in promoting the…

Background: Dysphagia is a common complication of stroke, and enteral feeding is often necessary. If present, cognitive impairment can complicate the process of reintroducing oral intake. There is limited evidence concerning the outcomes of enteral feeding with this particular patient group and decision-making can be challenging when considering…

Background: Mental health difficulties are common for autistic people; however, almost no interventions have been co-designed with the autistic community. Co-design has the potential to add important insights from lived experience into intervention design, but there are currently limited examples of how rigorously to undertake this practice. This…

Navigating the transition to university is a challenge for many students with numerous negative consequences if not successful. The current literature body is disparate and contains numerous methodological and analytical inconsistencies that make it difficult to identify the most salient and effective factors that help predict transition success…

The study of mobility effects is an important subject of study in sociology. Empirical investigations of individual mobility effects, however, have been hindered by one fundamental limitation, the unidentifiability of mobility effects when origin and destination are held constant. Given this fundamental limitation, we propose to reconceptualize…

This book details an individualised approach to teaching traumatised students. While being trauma informed is an approach gaining interest in the field of education, frameworks that can respond to the individual nature of traumatic experience and explicitly describe responses that open pathways for learning remain a gap in the literature. This…

Background: Education plays a pivotal role in empowering individuals with the knowledge and skills needed for careers, economic progress, and societal engagement. Dropping out of school before achieving a qualification undermines these opportunities and has an impact on individuals and society (Audit Commission, 2010; OECD, 2023). International…

Naturalistic developmental behavioral interventions (NDBIs) are evidence-based interventions for young children with autism spectrum disorder. There has been growing interest in implementing manualized NDBIs within the early intervention (EI) system without a clear understanding of how these programs and the broader strategies encompassed within…
